Bug ID: 385413
Summary: introduce a build option to use QtScript instead of
QtQML because of #384404
Product: frameworks-ktexteditor
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: rjvber...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 108193
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=108193&action=edit
combined revert of commits #fc510adaecf1dc83416eaf4392925ee4f3c5a1e0 and
#878797830dbd3b29bd5dcd8241c17ea20fb6914e (in that order).
The migration from QtScript to QtQML triggered a bug in QtQML versions < 5.9.x
which causes a severe regression for anyone who cannot upgrade to a Qt version
in which the issue has been fixed. I'm thinking of certain Mac users in
particular: Qt 5.9 runs only on 10.10 and newer, locking in certain Mac ranges
to 5.8 or earlier.
In short, the QtScript or QtQML question is akin to QtWebKit or QtWebEngine,
and merits a build option to make KTextEditor build against QtScript - if there
is no way to work around the issue in a less invasive way like tweaking the
function called when hitting Enter and that triggers the crash.
In the meantime affected users can apply the attached patch (applies cleanly to
5.38.0 and git/master).
